people will be running all sorts of ecus. most people will have pfc's but more and more people are going to nistune. there'd be a few microtech's, etc as well. doesn't really matter whether the car is a series 1 or a series 2.

as for the tune, they will all be different as they really need to be done specifically for each different car to be any good.

I'm running PFC and couldn't be happier, but it really just comes down to the tuner. Ask a local trusted workshop what they recommend and they will steer you towards what they are best at tuning, and what they have seen the best results with. A tuner with complete knowledge of Link ECU's will not tell you to get a PFC, one who's tuned hundreds of Microtechs will not want to "try their hand" at Nistune. A good tune is a good tune, regardless of which product they use to achieve it.

i had this problem. Bought a bog stock R33 series 1 which was flat as above 3500rpm. And i mean really flat. (it did have a cat back exhaust but wateva)

Put on turbo back exhaust, FMIC, pod, new plugs n splitfires. Still EXACTLY the same power.

I was getting worried that there might have been injector trouble or something cos it sucked so hard. I think my stock R33 N/A would have been going harder, honestly.

Got an ecu tune by toshi (is on the forums here). Pulls like a f*kn freight train now right thru to redline. and i mean real hard making the most of 12psi with a AFR of 12.

It was all just that shitty standard ecu. From my homework it seems that series 1's suffer alot more from this.

Im also preferable to tuning/chipping the standard ecu as you arent putting in a stand-alone ecu with all the installation and tuning associated.

This way it also looks completely bog standard as the chip goes in the existing ecu box. Cops and/or insurance companies cant tell youve had a tune done.
